How Do I Build Groups?
Step 3 Enter the following information in the New Group dialog box.
Step 4 Click OK.
4.3.2 Copying Groups
Domains for multiple users can easily be created in Cisco MGM. Just copy the same groups in different
domains, so that users who work different shifts can use the same group.
Step 1 In the Domain Explorer Hierarchy pane, select the group to be copied.
Step 2 Choose Edit > Copy (or click the Copy tool). This copies the group to the clipboard. (Notice the group
name now appears in italics.)
Step 3 Select the location where the group will be pasted and choose Edit > Paste (or click the Paste tool). This
pastes the contents of the clipboard under the selected group.
Note A group cannot be pasted into the Discovered NEs or Deleted NEs group.
Tip The drag and drop feature can also be used to copy groups. Hold down the Ctrl key and use the mouse
to drag and drop the group to a new location.
Since they cannot see the entire domain, users with the Assign NEs property (Provisioner, Operator, and
some custom user profiles) are not allowed to modify topology using copy, cut, paste, or drag and drop.
4.3.3 Moving Groups
Cisco MGM provides drag-and-drop capabilities to easily move groups in the Domain Explorer
Hierarchy pane.
Step 1 In the Domain Explorer Hierarchy pane, select the group to be moved.
Step 2 Use the mouse to drag and drop the selected group to a new location.
